Happy I'm not the only one.
BloodyGarbage
That's a pretty long winded way to describe being an adult
voulge
I feel like this mindset is not necessary to being an adult. One can be fully independent and not be passively suicidal.
Greyfith
Same, OP, same.
SFMGifs
So we aren’t alone?
MustaKyyhky
Hopefully it gets better for all of us, the depressed individuals. I'm in a slump aswell and would prefer not to feel anything at all.
MustaKyyhky
Todays one of those days (changed meds 2wk ago), where I feel like me being here won't matter to anyone. I'd like to turn off those feelings
OldAceMerrillUsesDynamite
I remember when I was so tired I hoped a car would hit me so I could sleep at the hospital.
gingerlover43015
Everyday going to work I'm hoping a car will swerve in front of me.
flaminggiraffe
This is termed a "passive death wish" in the psychiatric field. Very weird spot I've been in myself.
BellaCose
Just because you aren't suicidal doesn't necessarily mean you really want to live.
OrionRed
Jesus...the comments on this post.
mdperes4
Was thinking the same thing. Thought it was just me.

I'm almost motivated to do some sort of group therapy here! The catharsis is heartbreaking. Sounds like a lot of people in the same boat.

I've attempted suicide 4 times now, and I'm still unhappy. Everything is weird.

The only thing I'm afraid of when dying unexpectedly is that I didn't destroy all of my porn first.

I've been that way since I was like 11. I'm 26 now.
iluvbunbuns
Since I was 12, am 39 now.

I am most definitely in the same boat. I was in a car accident a couple weeks back and my first thought was oh well I had a good run.

Those that fear death have never seen the beauty of life, while those that welcome death have seen enough of its tragedies.
UsernameAttempted
I've been there for years. I have no prospects or hope for the future -I know its all pure shit-, but I just don't want to kill myself.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
It might be hard, but see if you can get some help. You don't deserve to feel like that!
UsernameAttempted
Maybe I do. I might be a horrible person.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
No way. Unless you did something that gets you in jail for a few years you didn't do something bad enough to feel like that.
UsernameAttempted
Your positivity is sickening. Go be happy to someone else.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
Oh I'm sorry for trying to help a stranger out
Beagon
I've been in this spot and I must tell you: Find the thing that makes you feel like that. For me it was a toxic relationship where I didn't
Beagon
Feel like I was appreciated. I sought help at the doctor which didn't help at all. But once I decided I was sick of it and broke up.
Beagon
The weight just fell off my shoulders and I've never been happier.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Felt this way not too long ago. Just wanted to be bedridden, didn't want to kill myself because that's selfish and hurt my family.
valkyrie117
Im at this point too
FermentedCrabSmuggler
With all the amount of time dedicated to taking care of you while bedridden, it would be just as selfish of you to want that.
rachisawinner
Through that again. So messed up.
FourByFourAnimalStyle
That is exactly how I feel. Exactly
rachisawinner
I feel exactly the same way. I was angry at my brother for a long time because he died (overdose) and i knew i couldnt put my parents 1/2
Virtika
I'm in this place now, and I know I should *want* to get better but I just feel empty. have a job though, it's the only thing that keeps me-
Virtika
feeling like I am accomplishing something. Yet I have no idea how to actually get "better", whatever that means.
Baguette2000
Do things for the others, if you have no clue for yourself. Or try to find something fulfilling to you.
lightningboltkid1
Learn things, get better at them. Get better friends (can always message random people like me) Eat better food. Get better sleep.
Bioticism44
Realized that I was basically commuting passive suicide by just waiting for my life to end. The thought freaked me out and I decided 1/2
22ndCenturyTransient
I wish it freaked me out. Instead I just really want it.

To get a part time job. Made minimum wage but best decision I've made. Got off my ass and worked for sonething. Now I'm back at uni!

nowitsshowtime
Do you step out of your comfort zone?I sometimes feel lack of excitement,but when my SO forces me out of my zone I find the excitement again
nowitsshowtime
I think we get complacent.I also do high intensity things (ski, ice hockey, rock climb) but comfort is what holds back energy.

That's not supposed to happen. Try to get some help! Not being able to enjoy things is a big deal.

See your doctor, try some exercise. Learn a new skill? It helps a little.

RandomImgurian
Same tbh. I used to be terrified of death, and I'd think no matter how bad things would get at least that would keep me from killing myself,
RandomImgurian
but now I seem to have somehow lost that fear and that kinda scares me.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
Try to get some help! Even if it helps a little bit it'll be worth it.
WigglyCherry
This is me but both ways. I want to kill myself but it would be nicer if someone did it for me. Cuz then people just thought I was ok 1/2
WigglyCherry
When I died. 2/2
KyrosXIII
I hear ya bro. I'm at the same spot. Used to take the cab to work and would just think that if I was in an accident and died... that's ok.
KyrosXIII
Wouldn't actively kill myself though.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
Has it improved now? If not, see if you can get some help. You shouldn't feel like that.
KyrosXIII
Yeah, it's my anxiety. It's gotten worse over the years & I just might seek help soon. I mean like professional medical help, not afterlife
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
I can't speak for you. But getting started with it was the hardest part for me, once you've done the first step it'll be easier. Good luck!

elephantpoe
I'm getting worse. I just saw a character in The Wire "kill himself" and after the initial sadness I thought "Could that work? Hmmm..."
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
Having messed up thoughts isn't always a bad thing. But if it's really making you feel bad you should see if you can get some help. Just in
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
case you need it.
elephantpoe
Haha, the thought was more like "I want to do that." And I would, but I'm broke and can't afford therapy and medication.
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
There are other things that can at least make it a little better. I'm not gonna act like I know anything about this, but talking to someone
StopStaringAtMyUserNameItsVeryShy
helps, doesn't need to be a professional. Someone on the internet, someone you know, anyone that's willing to listen. Also, taking good care

I think an immortal would inevitably grow insane or detached from reality. Bearing that in mind, I'm quite alright with a countdown.

I’ve lived in that place for several years now. Hang in there. They tell me it’ll get better.
Frostworks
It DOES. You have to trust them. Took a leap of faith and so worth it to live again
JHawke
I'm not tired of life, but I do wonder.. how can you choose to trust someone? Either something has proven to be trustworthy or not (yet)
iluvbunbuns
It doesn't get better. I hear that too and those people who say they got better probably werent really all that sick in the first place.

I second that, though I try to get out of it by voluntary work... to hopefully get on track again and find happiness/work....

You need help, then. If you can't find appreciation for your own children, you won't be the parent they need. Get help for them.
